Newly acquired developer FreeStyleGames have told VG247 that they are hard at work on a brand new IP at the bequest of Blizzard. Boss Chris Lee also says the studio will help grow across Europe.

"A big part of Activision’s growth for [Guitar Hero] in is to work with more local developers and to create more localized song content that resonates with the European market," Lee offered.

"Our studio will play a big part in that strategy. It’s been great fun to be able to work on this content and we continue to grow the team that’s working on this. We’re also working on an original intellectual property, which we’re very excited about and itching to say more about this when the time comes."

Lee suggests that his studio are already working on additional content for Guitar Hero World Tour, having contributed much to GHIII's propositions.

More shortly.
